v.
Civil No. 12-cv-299-PB
Timothy J. Vaughn, et al.
ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO PROCEED
IN FORMA PAUPERIS
The plaintiff, an inmate at Carroll County Department of Corrections (“Institution”), has
filed a motion to proceed in forma pauperis in the above-captioned case, which is accompanied
by a certificate signed by an authorized individual from the Institution. The certificate evidences
that over the last six months, the plaintiff’s average deposits have been $13.01 and the plaintiff’s
average monthly balance has been $0. Plaintiff has also submitted a signed consent form indicating
consent to permit inmate accounts to make court-ordered payments on his behalf.
The motion to proceed in forma pauperis is GRANTED. While 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(1)
requires the court assess an initial filing fee, given the plaintiff’s current balance is $0 there shall be
no initial filing fee assessed. Going forward, however, the plaintiff shall be responsible for
monthly payments of 20% of each preceding month’s income credited to his account, which shall
be remitted by the Institution when the amount in the account exceeds $10.00 until the sum of
$350.00 has been paid. 28 U.S.C. § 1915(b)(2).
The monthly payments shall be forwarded to the Clerk of Court by the Institution in
accordance with this Order. A copy of this Order, along with a copy of the signed Prisoner
Consent Form (doc. no. 4), shall be forwarded by the Court to the Institutions inmate account
department.
SO ORDERED.
